I guess I was always a mixed media fan!!!

Look at what I found in my Moms house! A card I had made for her. I must have made it as an early teen, I'm guessing. At first, I did not see all that I had combined to create this "extra special" card for my Mommy. It was surprising for me to find this.

I had taken a piece of paper, covered the front page with a floral tissue paper, then added a pink tissue paper heart I had cut out. Then added a cartoon. Went around the front edges of the card with a small decorative scissor cut, and then added gold glitter.

The inside had stickers on the left, and on the right side was a poem I had found. No author had been credited in my card, but I will search online to see if I can find out who wrote it. Here are the words, which I found to be so wonderful...and made me shed a tear or two when I read it.

God made a wonderful Mother,
A mother who never grows old.
He made her smile of the sunshine,
And he molded her heart of pure gold.
In her eyes He placed bright shining stars,
In her cheeks fair roses you see.
God made a wonderful Mother,
And he gave that dear Mother to me!






And on another note, how about this little feller that meets me on Moms front porch some mornings (especially rainy ones). I nearly sat on him twice...he is so camouflaged! Isn't he cute??? (Well...it's one of these "he's so ugly, he's cute" kinda deals)!!! :)
